Good Morning! Where the sun rises slow and steady, just like the way life unfolds out here in the country.

In saying that, it is a touch cloudy this morning waking up, and we could see a few showers later on in the day. After that, we are in for three more days of showers. My wife and I are hoping it holds off, as we would like to finish piling our firewood for the year. We have been making steady progress so far, and I would say we have the better part of half of it put away. It has been a challenge, though, with the ground being so wet and having to use a wheelbarrow. At any rate, today, we will give it our best and see how things work out. Truth told, I am happy I am able to be doing it this year, as last spring I couldn’t walk. What will be….. will be.

Highway 522 is picking up a wee bit traffic wise, as we have noticed a lot of new vehicles moving around. It will get busier as the weather gets nicer. Which is normal for our area this time of year.

“Highway 522’s like a breath of fresh country air—a little slower, a little sweeter, and a whole lot less exhaust fumes. I hope it stays that way, because there’s nothing like rollin’ down the windows and letting the breeze wash your worries away.”

Wisdom I grew up with living in the country: I have always said: “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. But if it is broke, well, I’ll fix it when I darn well feel like it. No need to rush into things. The same goes for life in general.”

With that I am off for my morning breakfast that my lovely wife is preparing for me, and will then get to work.

You all have a great day and I will leave you with this: “They say home is where the heart is, but here in the country, home is where the critters roam free, the air smells like fresh-cut hay, and our swing creaks with the weight of a thousand memories. And if the rain holds off, we will make some more.”
